With systemd being the default, we have no simple network management besides dhcp by default. Should we add netcfg to the base group so it is installed by default?

I noticed this is now carried out in [testing]. The PKGBUILD is maintained as part of the netcfg source tree (`make pkgbuild`). Shall I push the change for the next netcfg release? The next release will be 3.0 and is due this week for [testing]. The biggest remaining problem with netcfg at this point is the completely outdated wiki. I've got a skeleton for a new wiki page, but it will take time rolling it out.

The PKGBUILD is necessarily maintained as part of SVN. You're free to maintain a copy in the source tree, but I really wouldn't count on using that for anything more than to create a git build directly from the tree itself (e.g. initscripts and mkinitcpio do this). d
